When we all share love, we all win.

Over the last 10 years, through the Share the Love Event, Subaru of America and its participating retailers have donated more than $118 million to charity, with customers choosing between four national and over 1,170 local charities. In this, our 11th year, we are on track to bring that total to over $140 million, proving there’s no limit to the amount of love we can all share.

As part of our commitment to supporting those in our local community, you can also choose this hometown charity:

Columbus Dog Connection

Our mission is to rescue abandoned dogs, promote all rescues and shelters in Ohio, and save every adoptable dog/cat until they are no longer euthanized for lack of space. We operate a high quality statewide mobile spay/neuter service, targeting areas with high animal population and low spay/neuter resources. Our unofficial mission: To go out of business because our services are no longer needed. We often hear a chuckle when we say this, and we say this often, but if we didn't believe we could end the problem of overpopulation, we have no business asking anyone to believe in us... much less to give us even one of their hard-earned dollars.

Get a great vehicle and support a great cause. With every new Subaru purchased or leased, Subaru will donate $250 to your choice of charities that benefit your local community*, like Columbus Dog Connection. November 15 through January 2.

Byers Airport Subaru impacts in the local community

Every penny entrusted to our care goes toward saving homeless dogs/cats in Ohio, as well as providing low cost spay/neuter options to those in need. We are able to extend our services to rural areas of Ohio. Some Ohio counties have two or fewer vets in their community. Ohio has 32 Appalachian counties and we visit many of them with our mobile spay/neuter truck to offer low cost surgeries.

A leading voice for animals for over 150 years, the ASPCA® provides life-saving protection and care to those in need. Whether it’s rescuing animals from abuse and neglect, introducing and enforcing more humane legislation, or supporting animal shelters across the country, the ASPCA relies on donations and public support to help animals live better lives.

Through the ASPCA, Share the Love has had a significant impact on the rescue, transport, and adoption of more than 50,000 animals across the country.

Research shows when children diagnosed with a critical illness are granted their one true wish, it gives them renewed strength and energy to keep fighting. Their families and entire communities come together. The impact from just one wish, has the power to transform the lives of everyone involved.

Through Make-A-Wish, Share the Love has granted the wishes of more than 1,800 kids with life-threatening medical conditions.

Meals on Wheels provides 2.4 million homebound seniors with the nutrition and companionship they need to age without fear of hunger and isolation. For these vulnerable seniors, the Meals on Wheels volunteer’s daily visit keeps them healthy, connected to their community and able to live independently in the place they love most: their home.

Through Meals on Wheels, Share the Love has helped deliver nearly 2 million meals to America’s seniors.

The National Park Foundation, in partnership with the National Park Service, enriches America’s national parks and programs, safeguarding our heritage, and inspiring generations of national park enthusiasts.

Through the National Park Foundation, Share the Love has provided funding for critical programs and projects in more than 100 national parks and helped increase public awareness and engagement across our national park system.
